Eric Quinton “EJ” Turner Jr. (b. Oct. 7, 1999) is a promising, athletic young wide receiver prospect from our newly established Georgia pipeline. He is likely to redshirt in 2018.
The three-star player selected the Wildcats over offers from Appalachian State, Arkansas State, Bowling Green, Buffalo, Chattanooga, Cincinnati, Coastal Carolina, Colorado State, Georgia Southern, Georgia State, Massachusetts, Middle Tennessee State, Syracuse, Toledo, UAB and West Virginia, as well as interest from Florida, Maryland and Tennessee, after decommitting from Rutgers.
Turner played under head coach Joey King at Cartersville High School, where he was rated as the 94th-best prospect in Georgia for the Class of 2018 by Rivals and named to the Georgia High School Association All-Region 6-AAAAA second team as a senior in 2017.
